Epidemiology of the inherited cardiomyopathies

William J. McKenna et al.

Summary: Estimates of the incidence and prevalence of inherited cardiomyopathies are challenging due to incomplete and late-onset disease expression, highly variable penetrance within families, and overlapping phenotypes. Current global estimates for hypertrophic, dilated, and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies may be conservative.

Bi-allelic loss of function variants in SLC30A5 as cause of perinatal lethal cardiomyopathy

Johann Kaspar Lieberwirth et al.

Summary: Perinatal mortality is a significant burden for affected families and healthcare providers, with genetic causes often remaining unidentified. This study highlights the identification of homozygous loss of function variants in the SLC30A5 gene in four perinatally deceased children with cardiomyopathy, indicating a new gene associated with a severe and lethal form of the condition.

Childhood onset nexilin dilated cardiomyopathy: A heterozygous and a homozygous case

Luc Bruyndonckx et al.

Summary: This study describes two cases of pediatric cardiac disease with different clinical spectrums, a boy with mild DCM and a girl with fatal neonatal DCM, both associated with variants in the NEXN gene. These cases highlight the importance of investigating the NEXN gene in pediatric patients with DCM, even in cases with transient DCM.
